“Only when you realise that what we painted, what we built, and what we wrote, and what we self-dramatised, and what we composed musically, had to do with concepts of our own strength, of our own becoming, of our own purpose of glory — only when you realise that that was the underpinning for much of what was valued, only then will you really accord value and respect to the precedence of the past. If you rip out — for the fear of being hostile to anyone else — all prospect of group identity that is based upon strength, you will end up with a very weak and a very fey doctrine of your own culture, and that is what is occurring at the present time.”
-Jonathan Bowden
